[Zope-PTK] problems publishing news...

sorry about the "stupid" newbie question, but I'm obviously doing something
wrong, and 2 days of reading and re-reading various Zope/CMF documents
hasn't set me straight.

Here's the deal-- I installed Zope 2.3.1b2 from the binary tarball.  I'm
running it on Linux Mandrake 7.2 (I know, I know... I'd probably be having
fewer problems on Redhat or Debian or something...)
I downloaded the latest CMF beta and put the proper files in the Products
directory.  

For the most part, everything works just fine... I'm *very* impressed with
the potential of this piece of work.  However, when I try to create a News
item, and then publish it, I get the following error when I try to view it
from the main page:

Error Type: TypeError
Error Value: call of non-function (type IOBTree)

The only way I can get rid of this is to delete the news item...

I'm fairly new to Zope and no virtually no Python, so I'm at a bit of a
disadvantage when things like this crop up.  Perhaps someone can point me in
the right direction?    From looking at other emails, it seems everyone else
isn't having this problem, so it must be me :-)

thanks in advance-
